Gu Li felt like her body was like a traveler who was short of water in the desert, attracting the spiritual energy around her hungrily, until she felt like her body was full of water like a sponge, and the spiritual energy around her became sparse. Then it stopped.
Opening her eyes slightly, Gu Li saw that the world seemed to be countless times clearer at this moment. She looked into the distance and happened to see the down on a newborn bird in a bird's nest.
Gu Li turned her head and met Yun Yi's eyes. For some reason, she heard her own heartbeat, resounding through her chest like a drum.
Turning her head calmly, Gu Li felt her face burning. She stood up and took two steps forward. She silently recited "Color is Emptiness" several times. Then her voice became calmer and she whispered: "Thank you for today. I'll go first." gone."
"Wait!" Yun Yi suddenly said.
Gu Li turned her head, with some doubts in her eyes.
Yun Yi said: "Now Yun Jinse has arrived in Qianjing. With her character, she will definitely find opportunities to embarrass you. Your current spiritual power is only at the third level of Qi Refining, while Yun Jinse has already reached the foundation building level." On the eighth floor, you are no match for her."
"So..." Gu Li pondered for a moment, then her face darkened as she thought of some possibility.
"So, I want to take you out of here. When we leave here, I will leave Yue Qi here to protect your family. With Yun Jinse's character, she will definitely leave with us. What's more, you have now started on the path of cultivation. , I urgently need to go to some places with strong spiritual energy to practice. I heard that there is Penglai Immortal Mountain in the South China Sea, which can make people practice rapidly..." Yun Yi followed the instructions.
Gu Li looked at Yun Yi, a little funny, thinking, in the original book, Yun Yi was a noble and cold prince of the Yun clan. Unexpectedly, how could such a good prince become a bit... funny?
Yun Yi saw that Gu Li did not immediately agree to him, and knew that he was a little impatient, so he immediately said: "If you agree, I will keep all the twenty-four envoys to protect your relatives. In this way, even if the Daqian Kingdom Even if you are destroyed, I can guarantee that nothing will happen to your family."
Finally, Gu Li sighed softly: "Let me think about it!"
Yun Yi's thin lips curled up slightly: "Then when will we set off?"
Before Gu Li could speak, she heard a dark figure flying forward, landing next to Gu Li, and whispering: "Master, there is news from Sifang City that Chen's Tea Shop has another problem."
"What happened? Tell me slowly." After hearing this, Gu Li's face couldn't help but darken. Are there still people who don't care about life and death who are doing this secretly?
"A very powerful tea merchant came to Sifang City and took away a lot of Chen's tea business. Chen's tea shop was about to be unable to open, but the other party used legitimate business methods. Mr. and Mrs. Chen There is nothing we can do, business is extremely bleak." The man in black reported the general story of the matter.
Gu Li glanced at Yun Yi apologetically and hurried towards home. Yun Yi's voice sounded behind her: "It's okay for you to think about this matter slowly. If you don't have time recently, I won't either." Come on, you can leave anytime you want!"
"Okay!" Gu Li turned around and agreed while running. Coupled with today's incident, she really owed Yun Yi more and more. I'm afraid that even the promise of her body was not enough. Gu Li was a little worried.
The problem with Chen's tea shop is a plot in the original book. The original plot is that Chen's tea shop is being overtaken by others. When the real daughter finds out about this, she quickly leads people from the general's palace to help, but is ridiculed by the vicious female supporting character. After a while, the real daughter was kicked out, and after a period of desperate attempts, the business of Chen's Tea Shop almost collapsed.
At this moment, the real daughter saved a beggar on the roadside, and this beggar happened to be a reclusive business boss. With the help of the boss, he saved the business of Chen's Tea House.
Where did the beggar Gu Li Ke bask in the sun? Oh, by the way, it was at the base of the south wall of Sifang City.
When I got home, I saw Gu Yan with a somewhat anxious face. When he saw Gu Li coming back, Gu Yan said, "Xiao Li, I want to go to Sifang City. Something happened with my parents and uncle. The fourth child It's over with Lao Wu. The second brother seems to have been assigned a position by the prince. The eldest brother is also very busy. After I leave, you can move to our new home and take good care of Xiaomeng. "
"Third brother, if I'm not wrong, there will be a selection at Master Lu's place these days, right?" Gu Li said.
"How do you know?" Gu Yan felt guilty, "There will be a selection in a month. It is said that the winner can enter the Tang Sect to learn the art of mechanism."
"It is indeed a rare opportunity." Gu Li nodded, then raised his head and looked at Gu Yan, "The three of you don't like the mechanism technique, do you want to give up?"
"Of course not." Gu Yan said loudly, "It's just that my parents and uncle... are also very important... I have never contributed much to this family, and I won't help at this time..."
"Third brother, don't think like this. If you can join the Tang Sect in the future, then our whole family will rely on the third brother. How can you not make any contribution?" Gu Li said seriously, "How powerful the Tang Sect's background is, the third brother also It’s clear, isn’t it?”
"But..." Gu Yan seemed to be interested in making a move, but was hesitant.
"It's nothing, third brother, hurry up and go to our new home. I'll go to my parents and uncle's place. You and Xiaomeng study hard." Gu Li took down Gu Yan's luggage and went back to the room to pack it up. I packed my luggage and set off quickly.
Gu Li did not go directly to Sifang City. Instead, she went to Qianjing and picked out a horse and harness in the West Market. Then she got on the horse and set off. If she remembered correctly, Sifang City would hold the event in three days. A grand event in the tea industry. At this grand event, the opponent of Chen's Tea Company wants to bring down Chen's Tea Company.
Different from last time, all the methods used by the opponents this time were conspiracy, which made Gu's father, who is also a business wizard, not sure what to do. Tomorrow there will be a grand gathering of tea industry, which will be held by major tea shops. The competition between them is called the Tea Fighting Conference.
At that time, the tea shops in the entire Sifang City will gather in the central square of the city, where almost everyone in the Sifang City will gather. At that time, the major tea shops will take out the most expensive tea, brew it, and put it in their own stalls cup by cup. Guests are allowed to taste the tea, and the family with the most empty cups wins. The family with the most empty cups will be awarded the title of Tea King, which will be written by the city lord himself and hung on his plaque.
Hoping that she could catch up, Gu Li rode her horse quickly while thinking about how to help Chen's Tea Shop overcome this difficulty.
When Gu Li arrived at Sifang City, the tea fighting competition had already begun. Gu Li first went to Chen's Tea Shop. As expected, the tea shop only had a few servants, and his parents and uncle had already gone to the tea fighting competition.
Gu Li cleaned up casually and then rode on his horse and rushed to the central square of the city. The servant looked at the two huge jars on both sides of the horse Gu Li was riding, wondering what they were.
Arriving at the scene of the tea fight, sure enough, as Gu Li had expected, the Gu family’s tea stall was almost one of the worst. It was hard to imagine that Chenji Tea Shop, which had been the most popular before, could not even package the tea. No, no one cares.
Father Gu saw Gu Li coming over, handed him a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile: "Xiao Li is here, sit down quickly and have a cup of tea."
"Hey, there is no empty cup and you actually called your daughter to drink tea. Gu Hai, come and give me a cup too?" Gu Li was just about to take the tea from Father Gu's hand when he heard a strange voice beside him, Gu Li's brows furrowed slightly, and she turned around to look, but saw no one. Looking further down, she saw a man less than one meter tall, looking up at his father with his hands behind his back and a haughty look on his face.
Gu Li didn't hold back at all and burst into laughter.
Father Gu coughed lightly to cover up the slightly raised corners of his mouth, and scolded without being harsh at all: "Ahem, Xiaoli, pay attention to your image."
"You...why are you laughing? Why don't you quickly pour me a cup of tea?" The little man was so angry that Strawberry's nose was a little crooked.
"Yes, yes, please, Mr. Tu. My daughter is young, so please invite Haihan." Father Gu quickly took a glass of water and handed it to Mr. Tu.
Master Tu took the tea, raised his hand, and poured it all towards Father Gu. The tea was actually a bit hot. Even if it wasn't hot, Master Tu's behavior was insulting enough. Gu Li's face darkened immediately. , picked up the plate on the side, and slapped all the tea that Mr. Tu poured at Mr. Tu at Mr. Tu.
Seeing Mr. Tu jumping on the ground while being burned, Gu Li wanted to slap him in the face again.
"Someone raises a little bitch with no one to teach them. Just wait until I take over your Chenji Tea Shop. Today, no one will come to drink your tea. Want to make a comeback? Damn this. Damn it! Bah!" Mr. Tu knew that he was being unreasonable by attacking first, so he cursed and walked away.
"Dad, is it this kind of stuff that has driven uncle's tea business into a desperate situation?" Gu Li watched the figure walk away, and then asked Gu's father the whole story.
Hearing Gu Li's question, Gu's father sighed softly and said, "Oh, isn't it? It's not that Tu Hu has great abilities, but that Tu Hu has recruited a powerful businessman, and he has very A good tea source is of better quality and cheaper than the tea we collect, so... Tu Hu's tea shop has almost taken over all the tea business in Sifang City. This time, many tea shops actively want to cooperate with Tu Hu's tea Let’s cooperate.”
"Dad, where is Tu Hu's tea shop?" Gu Li asked.
"The one with the most people over there is the tea stall of Tu's Tea Shop. This time he got a bag of top-grade tea leaves from somewhere. The aroma of tea that fills the entire tea fight is their tea." The person who answered Gu Li was his uncle Chen Jue. After not seeing each other for just a few decades, his uncle actually had silver threads on his head.
"Uncle, don't worry, I have a way to get people back from them." Gu Li said confidently.
